 Lindow Man: His Impact on Later Prehistoric Studies in Southern North West England 40 Years On

'This is review of how fieldwork and our interpretations of the late prehistoric period in the region have change since 1984 and Lindow Man's discovery. From new settlement sites and field systems, to the impact of the Portable Antiquities Scheme, our understanding of the first millennium BCE is vastly different to what it was in the 1980s - but is this really all down to the Lindow Man affect?'

Hoghton Tower is an historic landmark in Preston, Lancashire.  This talk given by Steve Spencer follows on from an aritcle he wrote in Transactions 114.  Our Researtch Grant in 2024 was awarded to Jane Smith for her work on the project which saught to deepen our understanding of the North Entrance to the tower where it is believed a chapel predating 1565 once stood.  The talk will report of the findings of that project.

We are hoping to follow on with a visit for members in Sewptember 2025.

Following on from our visit to Hoghton Tower we are hoping to arrange a Zoom talk.
